This four hour seminar is a basic introduction to trolling while utilizing planer boards. Planer boards allow you to cover a large swath of water at various depths and speeds, by trolling multiple lure and bait presentations away from your vessel's motor noise. This is an excellent presentation technique for after ice out salmon, rainbows and lake trout, as well as summer time walleye, bass and northern pike.

Boards can be applied in both lakes and rivers. The seminar will cover the many aspects of the equipment used inlcuding vessel rigging, types of rods, reels, lines, lures and streamer fly presentations for targeted species.

This course helps participants choose locally appropriate land use planning strategies for conserving natural resources. It uses case studies and exercises to show how taking action can work in real life. The overall goal is to build understanding of what you can do, how to work with different people in your community, how to choose ways to protect natural resources, and how to make it happen.  The workshop is designed with local officials in mind (planning commissioners, conservation commissioners, selectboards, etc.), but everyone is welcome! Organized by the Lamoille County Planning Commission, the Association of Vermont Conservation Commissions, and the Vermont Agency of Natural Resources.

Dates: A 2-part series, March 27 & April 3
